I've got some wise pieces of advice, I can see it now, many people will rage, do I care? Mmm, no, rage here, rage anywhere, even try to get it deleted, I just don't really care.
To start off, Blood Elves...aren't attractive, neither are Night Elves, think about it, do you find something with long ears, that glows in the sun or is blue, attractive? So why play them -just- for their looks?
Most people came here to RP, not watch you steal the spotlight, if you came here for attention, prepare to be disappointed
Never sell yourself out. GM's are here to moderate and help with what they can, NEVER sell out your own opinion for theirs, they are as human as you are, sometimes less. Too many times people lose their spine and fold in to whatever a GM said, that's something you should do to your boss, not to a GM.
Kretol, god forbid, has enough friends already, spamming and swarming him doesn't do much, and it's not going to give you GM ship. Of course that's not like I'm asking you to avoid him like the plague, but...doing what some people do is, borderline stalkerish. Also on a fun note, Kretol in spell checker is Cresol
WoW is a fantasy game, not a realism game, I understand some people came to CotH to have some delicious realism, but...why come to Warcraft to be realistic? I came to be a hero/villain of Azeroth, who can slay beasts and ride a ram, I didn't come to hear the same “romance drama†and “friendship crisis†that I could exit my house to find.
Resurrection is an OOC mechanic, it is only allowed in RP because people refuse to throw away their characters very often, if Leonardo Da Vinchi lost some of his work, he would be upset, probably, but he would create something new. Until everyone learns to get along, and gives up either realism (no Resurrections) or fantasy (Resurrections) then we'll always have this odd mix.
Goblins, don't, care, about, your, drama. Unless you break something, In fact, unless it was about to cause a riot, I feel it is safe to say they'd laugh at someone getting stabbed.
ERP isn't a –bad- thing, it's still...Role Play, but, a fun fact is it was designed for actual couples looking to spice up their sex life. Also, I, and no doubt many others, don't care how many people you cybersex with...I...really really don't. If you are also proud at the number of people you ERP with, well, I'm sorry but please...just...find a nice girl or boy.
The Grizzled mercenary with the sawn off shotgun on his back and a cigarette in his mouth isn't original. You aren't the first to do it, and Mad Max will kick your ass, regardless, you cannot openly call somebody Mary Sue for making an “orphaned elf found by such and such†when we have 50 mercenaries and 600 blood elf loving night elves and 600 night elf loving blood elves.
Back to resurrection, if you did get resurrected...you would not be fine, you would not be ok, and you would be very, very, very, very damaged. A stutter, a limp? Hell no, you'd be mentally screwed; nobody that comes back from the DEAD should be anyway near the same as they were.
People who generally go to war or face as many battles as I have seen gain wounds, scars and mental trauma, but for a server that often tries to impose realism, I've seen way to many people coming out with 1 scar conveniently and manly placed on their cheek or eye.
Never take CotH too seriously, it's only a pass time, if you begin to take it as serious as real life it may be time to take a break. This doubles for the GM's who seem to treat it as serious as they would a real job, you are there to help, not break your back.
Knowing more than Wow wiki isn't a very good trait to have.
It's good to make friends on the server and on the internet, but...don't try and manipulate people. If they like you, they do if they don't, they don't, don't try and force them to do anything.
One last thing I should mention for people to read before somebody inevitably tries to kill it and me. Somebody who can't and won't be named once told me that the “GM's, especially Enforcers†cop a lot of crap, insults, and stuff like that. You have to understand something, People don't like being told what to do, especially younger people, of course. Of course somebody with “Enforcer†in their title will cop some insults or some anger, it's natural. You can't run off or complain, if you do that, then why did you accept the job in the first place?
I close with this.
I'm a hypocrite, yes, but, at least I'm writing.
P.S if this offended you, well, damn. I don't know if I'll get banned for it or anything, but life is life and CotH is a server I came to...to enjoy really.
